hi and thanks for all your help in advance!

i recently bought a 280 gtx to replace my 9800 gtx, however i am worried that my psu is not good enough, any help?

my psu: Oryxx Titan 800w dual 12v rail
+3.3v=24A - +5v=24A - +12v DC1=20A - +12v DC2=20A - -12v=0.8A - +5vsb=3A


My system:
q6600
asus striker extreme
creative sound blaster extreme gamer
samsung sh203-n optical drive
seagate barricuda 500gb sata 2
seagate barricuda 250gb sata 2
9800gtx - soon to be 280 gtx
2x2GB OCZ raptor pc2-8500 ram @ 1066mhz
antec 900 case

so what im asking is will my psu support my computer once i replace my 9800 with a 280?

what i also want to know is whether or not the psu would have enough juice left over to overclock my q6600 from 2.4ghz to 3ghz

thanks very much in advance and any help would be seriously appreciated

You should have enough power, but I would highly recommend replacing the PSU with a good quality 500W+ unit. Antec Earthwatts, Corsair, Seasonic or Silverstone would be good choices.
